WWE Smackdown Results - January 8, 2019

The Show starts with Daniel Bryan at the concession stand and he says AJ Styles would be out here with the people.

He is here to take AJ on an educational journey. This is a ‘concession stand’, but the only concessions being made are to your health. You at the people around you. Are you happy and healthy? How do you feel after eating this garbage. You eat this because you are filling a void. You shove candy and popcorn down your throat. That is why you cheer for AJ Styles. You cheer for him to fill a void in your lives. AJ Styles is like this hot dog as he takes it out of a fan’s hand. It is toxic, just like the people who chant for AJ.

Bryan throws the hot dog back to the fan. Daniel Bryan says they take a large cup of high fructose syrup and you drink it with a plastic straw. He throws the drink at the fan and calls him fickle. Daniel asks the merchandise stand employee for a Yes Movement T-Shirt but there aren’t any because the Yes Movement is Dead. He does not want to pollute this world with this merchandise. Look at the AJ Styles shirts and gloves. It makes it look like he actually cares. It is just useless plastic garbage.

Daniel goes to the aisle and he says he is making this world a better place. In order to get change, you need to change. These people are weak, submissive, and impotent. These people reek and are submissive. Daniel says he is here changing the planet one person at a time. Daniel grabs an AJ Styles sign and says he is the champion. AJ fills a void for 30 seconds. AJ says he will tear apart that void and fill it with something meaningful and valuable. Daniel says he will build this world with something these children can be proud of.

Daniel says you boo him but he is changing the planet for the better while you change it for the worse.
